Prosecutors say the 12-year-old boy was shot at least a dozen times as he stood on the porch of Patrick's home. The boy's stepfather and a brother were wounded.

Patrick is a convicted drug dealer and said he fired his AK-47 because he thought a rival drug dealer was back to shoot him again. Patrick has already been sentenced to more than 16 years in federal prison after pleading guilty to being a felon in possession of a weapon.
